Digital cash

Our digital cash is simply real money in digital form. It can be used to purchase digital assets, exchanged for world currencies, or spent on your cards anywhere.

Digital cash “lives” in two worlds: Fluid (for everyone) and on-chain (optionally, for crypto users).

Note: you don’t need to have a Web3 wallet to use digital cash. It is only if you want to hold the digital cash in your own wallet.

These two worlds are explained below

	Fluid world	On-chain

Target profit sharing rate	DUSD 4.00% DEUR 2.10% DGBP 3.00% DCHF 1.70%	n/a
Spend on cards?
Use in DeFi?

The better financial model for a better world

What can’t you do with digital cash?

Send it via the traditional banking system (e.g. using Swift). To do this, you need to have a Traditional Account.

How digital cash works on-chain

The world’s first fully backed, transparent, on-chain verifiable digital cash.

Together with our community, we have created digital cash for the digital age.
Fluid enables users to mint their own digital cash, right from their Fluid Account or their Traditional Account.
Or, you can simply purchase digital cash directly on-chain.
Built for mass crypto adoption.

You are the Mint

With us, the user mints digital cash using their own world currency deposits.
When the user presses ‘mint’, their USD deposits get sent to Fluid’s public treasury account, which is broadcasted to the blockchain (demonstrating our on-chain verifiable reserves).

Digital dollars (DUSD) are then minted to the user’s Web3 wallet (like MetaMask).
This happens in seconds on Arbitrum, and is cheaper and more convenient than using a crypto exchange.

You are also in control of redeeming

When the user presses ‘redeem’, the digital dollars (DUSD) get burned.
The user receives the money back to their own Fluid Account or Traditional Account.
For Traditional Account holders USD moves from our treasury account to the user’s account with us.
Again in seconds.

Our smart contract doesn’t allow more digital dollars to be created than there are USD in the public treasury account, on-chain.

Fluid’s digital cash is verifiable to anyone, on-chain, 24/7. Faster, cheaper and safer than anything else.

You can buy digital cash or you can mint digital cash

How to buy digital cash

You can purchase digital cash on-chain, if you are a crypto user.

Anyone can also purchase digital cash directly from Fluid.

Create a Fluid Account.
Top up your account. Now you have digital cash.
To send the digital cash on-chain, connect a Web3 wallet and select Mint.

You will need to provide ID verification information in relation to the size of your purchase of digital cash. Per transaction per day, the requirements are:

Above $1,000 Identification

Above $25,000 Source of funds

These ID verification processes are undertaken through specialist ID software and controlled by our in-house compliance experts. For most people it takes less than a minute.
